It would make sense to have one before the Newcastle game. If there is it will probably be behind closed doors. Mostly likely is the intra club matches where they 1. Play three 45 minute slots 2. Shrowd in secrecy and 3. 2 or 3 unexplained injuries surface. Predictions - bruno brace. La Rocca to get some minutes in and plays FFA game on performance. Caceres injury (3 weeks) and 1 youngster impresses the gaffer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IssySG Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) I think we could be playing a behind closed doors practice match against United in Adelaide. If you check Nathanial Atkinson's instagram (@Nattyakka) you can see a bus full of City boys kitted out in their training gear and the location tagged is Adelaide.

Inchcolm Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 I do not understand the secrecy behind keeping quite about a game behind closed doors. I firmly believe communication between the fans and the club is important. I looked on their web site and Facebook page to trace or any indication of a warm up game, there was none. They are pushing membership and hospitality packages but it has to be a two way street. If they do not keep the fans informed and interested on the lead up to the season they may lose some before it starts. I am an old fart and have just got my head around the web pages and Facebook but I have not reached Instagram, Twitter etc. Can some kind soul put an update or a report on this form about today's warm up game in Adelaide. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 It’s behind closed doors because if it were open to the public they would have to (legally) have to have security, catering, stadium staff etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inchcolm Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 120 minutes to score against Brisbane. At least 90 minutes against Adelaide could not score. One goal in 210 minutes against A league opposition that must set alarm bells ringing. We will get a better assessment of today's game when we see who was playing and who was our main striker.

Yes defensively that is sound but it goals that wins games clean sheet only guarantees a draw. If you want to finish in the top two you need to win games and this score 1 more than the opposition.

jw1739 Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 Melbourne City FC Starting XI: Galekovic, Atkinson Schenkeveld, Delbridge, Jamieson, Malik, Brattan, Vidosic, McGree, Wales, Fornaroli Subs: Bouzanis, O’Halloran, J.Cavallo, Ahmed, Portelli So, absentees were Griffiths, La Rocca, Caceres and the youngsters who played over the weekend - Najjarine etc.. We know when we look at the list that we are very short of players up front. Not surprising that we're not scoring IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inchcolm Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 Surprised to see MOH on the bench again. He needs games, he played very little last season. No point in paying a lot of money for him to come half way round the world and not play him. As I have said before when he was at St Johnstone he always needed a match or two to get going. I say a lot of money, I am assuming this as he was on £8,000 a week at Rangers if my calculations are correct that's almost 14,000 dollars a week (he had 2 years left on that contract). He was offered £3,000 a week at a number of Scottish clubs and that's over 5,000 dollars a week. So I would not expect him come here for less than that.
